Wireless Phone Number Finder
To identify the carrier that supplies service
to a phone customer and their location, visit
these sites and enter your Area Code and
Prefix (NPA-NXX). Some numbers may no longer
conform to these records after having been
"ported" through Local Number Portability. In those cases, only the original assignment
is shown. Some old cellular company names
are shown as that is how they are still listed
in the administrator's records. To find what
is Local to your phone, check the "Local Calling Guide."

- NANPA
The official Area Code &
Prefix-assigning
organization. Choose a state
and you get
all Prefixes for that state
and Area Code,
wireless and wireline. The
results are large
files.
- TELCO DATA
A frequently-updated and easy-to-use
site.
Enter your Area Code and Prefix
and get a
result of the name of the carrier
that was
originally assigned that Prefix.
- FONE FINDER
Enter the first 6 or 7 digits
to get a result.
The site includes Canadian
and other international
numbers.
- LOCAL CALLING GUIDE
A database that provides a
cross-reference
among switches and local calling
areas which
can be tailored with a small
or great amount
of detail. We use this site
to find what
exchanges are 'Local' to a
particular cell
phone number. It also refers
back to the
NANPA database.
- IS IT LOCAL?
Find out if there is a long distance charge
to call from one prefix to another. This
applies mostly for wireline-to-wireless and
wireline-to-wireline numbers.
